Determines jointly carbohydrate-binding proteins (CBPs) as well as their carbohydrate-binding amino acid residues. SPOT-CBP supplies a web application, extension of the SPOT-Struc software, that uses a template-based approach. The application starts from a protein structure file and identifies CBPs based on their known protein structures. It was tested on over 100 nonredundant CBPs and more than 3000 non-CBPs.
